    The self catering property met all our expectations, parking was easy and safe. Location was quiet yet close enough to the towns amenities. Good base from which to visit this part Switzerland. Lovely hosts and some nice welcome treats on arrival.

    We were traveling through; therefore, this was a convenient place to stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and check-in after midnight was no problem due to the safe lockers for which we received a code where the key was. Simple but fresh breakfast with different breads and croissants, jams, cheeses, and meat. Clean and big room with a functional bathroom with hot water, towels, and shampoo. It was beautifully located close to the lake.

    Very warm welcome. Kind and friendly staff. We enjoyed a refreshing draft beer on arrival. Undercover & safe parking for our motorbike. Very comfy bed. Lovely breakfast. Gasthaus Schäfli is not modern, but although the facilities are simple and rather dated, we had everything we needed, enjoyed a lovely stay and would stay again with no hesitation. We loved it! Thank you.

    Great location, the rooms were good with a great balcony over looking the lake. The Bathrooms were a good size, however , the towels were very thin and not was expected. The staff in restaurant were very good and the food excellent (If expensive).. However, the menu had very limited choices, so whilst food was good, there was very little choice

    We were very happy with our stay at this nice old-fashioned European style hotel. The host provided a safe place to store our bicycles overnight and made it possible to get the bikes out early before the hotel opened. Our bed was super comfortable.
